149. Threats

After hearing this, I finally understood why my grandfather asked me to go to the depths of the Yin Temple to find the answer I wanted to know at my husband's funeral, it turned out that he was already hinting at me to go to the ancestors of the Bai family, but when I passed through the Yin Temple, I fell short and was pushed into the Yin Temple by Xue Fang.

Then the question arises, why didn't Xue Fang let me find the ancestors of the Bai family, and why didn't he want me to know this secret?

I thought to myself these words. I didn't say it, and I didn't want to talk to Li Huai too much about these things, whether he knew it or not, the less he said, the safer it was, so I said to Li Huai: "You help me find them, I'm going to that place." ”

Who knew that Li Huai immediately refused: "No." ”

I asked, "Why not?" ”

Li Huai said: "That place is not for everyone to go, and it ......"

When he said the word "and", he suddenly paused, as if there was something that could not be said, and I looked at him, waiting for him to say the next word, but he stopped abruptly, and instead changed to another sentence: "That place cannot be said." ”

When I saw that he would not tell the reason, I said, "You only have three days, and if I don't return to the body in three days, then the body is his, and how will you deal with it then?" ”

Li Huai seemed to be very surprised by my decision, and he said, "You are willing to give him your body? ”

I said, "I'm trapped in the old mansion by you anyway, what's the difference between being a dead soul and being a living person." Anyway, I can't get out for the rest of my life, and I'm going to die here. ”

Li Huai stopped talking, it seemed that the threat was extremely effective, he pondered as if considering the feasibility of this matter, and as he thought I suddenly asked him, "I have another question for you." ”

He looked at me and said, "What's the problem?" ”

I said, "You are not the earthly branch yin evil, as for who you are, now I don't want to ask, but I want to know where the earthly branch yin evil is, why is it not in the old mansion anymore?" ”

Li Huai looked at me, it seemed that he couldn't answer the question, and it seemed that he also realized that he couldn't always ask three questions about my questions, so he could only say: "It went to another place." ”

I pressed on, "Where?" ”

Li Huai asked me rhetorically, "Where do you think he will go?" ”

In the face of Li Huai's rhetorical question, I was a little sudden, so I went through it in my mind, and I seemed to have some clues, but I didn't seem to know. fell into silence, and Li Huai didn't say anything when he saw that I was in silence, as if he wanted to confuse the past with silence, but soon a place came to my mind. I said, "Yin Temple." ”

Li Huai looked at me, but this time there was no expression on his face, he still didn't continue, and I continued to ask him, "What is it doing in the Yin Temple?" ”

But Li Huai said to me: "You know better than me what is in the Yin Temple. ”

I don't know much about the Yin Temple. Although I've been there once, but it's all confused and clueless, I heard Li Huai say this obviously to fool the past, and I think he shouldn't be able to say, then my question comes, what is the earthly branch yang evil and the earthly branch yin evil, although they are all due to the destruction of the twelve earthly branches and the evil spirit, but the evil must have a source, it is the soul. Is it a demon or something else?

I think that's the most important question, are they just paper figures?

For a while, countless thoughts rushed in my mind, I came back to my senses from this overwhelming doubt, and returned to the original problems that needed to be solved, these mysteries are getting farther and farther away, and the current matter is what needs to be solved urgently, I don't know the motives and purposes of the Bai family's ancestors, the rest are just a waste of time, so I asked him: "Have you thought about it, will you take me with you?" ”

Li Huai didn't say anything but looked at me, and finally said, "That's good, but you have to promise me one thing." ”

I asked, "What's the matter?" ”

He said: "Whatever you see there, you can't reveal half a word to anyone, only you know, can you say yes?" ”

I was amazed at why Li Huai would make such a request, and I calculated it in my heart. So he promised him, "Yes, I promise you." ”

But Li Huai obviously noticed my hesitation, so he became a little distrustful, he said: "You just hesitated, so do I believe or don't believe your answer?" ”

When I heard him say this, I said, "I will not repent, and I will not tell anyone anything I see there." ”

He said, "I can't believe you without any evidence, and I need you to give me something as a token of your refusal to tell me about it." ”

I asked, "What token do you want?" ”

I can't think of anything else in me that he wants. And it's what I can give him.

Li Huai said, "I want the key to the door in the attic." ”

I looked at him, "The key in the attic?" ”

He looked into the north wing and gestured to me that it was the door I knew that could not be opened, and I looked at him in amazement and said, "I don't have the key to that door." ”

Li Huai said, "You have, but in that empty house, you know where it is." ”

Li Huai said that I saw the empty house of my own ghost, and Li Huai said: "This is the bottom line that I can accept, otherwise everything is up to you." ”

Now that both sides have shown their insurmountable bottom line, I replied to him, "That's good." ”

To go to that empty house. He and I went upstairs to the secret compartment upstairs, and when I got inside, I found that there was already a secret door under the soul, behind the chair in the very center. I walked in first, and then I came into the familiar space, and when I came out, I did come to the empty house, but it was an empty house, and I thought I would see my ghost again, but no, there was nothing but me.

And where will the keys be?

Li Huai didn't follow, because he and his cat had been banished by the Shadows. So I couldn't get here, I wandered around the empty house and there was nothing, and I started to get anxious, where do I go to find the key to such a big house, and why is the key here?

I remember my grandmother said that there was no key to this door at all, and when I thought of my grandmother, I suddenly remembered that she had entered this secret compartment and disappeared all night and day, could it be that she also came here, and Lihuai said that the key is here, does it mean that grandma actually has a key, but for some reason, she hid the key here.

So according to Grandma's idea of hiding things, where will she hide the key?

So I went to every room, and I went to look under the bed, and indeed I found a jar under the bed in the wing. As I had seen under her bed, there was a mirror under the jar, and I saw the familiar jar and took it out of the bed along with the mirror, and then I did not pick it up, but opened the lid of the jar in this way.

When I opened the jar, I saw that it was a human head, but it was not rotten at all, it was just pale and terrible, and a key was bitten into his mouth. I didn't know who this man was, but he looked like a middle-aged man, and I didn't care so much, so I reached out and took the key from his mouth.

Who knew that I had just taken out the key, and I heard the sound of the mirror shattering under the jar, and then the head of the jar suddenly opened his eyes and looked at me motionlessly, although I was prepared in my heart. But I was still startled, and then I heard him say, "Find my body." ”

Hearing him suddenly come out of nowhere, I was a little unprepared, so I replied to him and said, "Where is your body, and who are you?" ”

But he didn't answer me again, I only saw that after I asked the question, his head suddenly turned into ashes and collapsed in the jar, and soon became something like paper ashes, and at the same time it happened in the room, and I seemed to hear something from the depths of the room, and it felt like it came from the ground.
